________________________________________________________________________________
================================================================================
StepMania 5.0 Preview 2 | 20110???
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2011/06/10
----------
* [ScreenEdit] Split the Area Menu into the Area Menu and Alter Menu. Use the
"A" key to enter the Alter Menu when a selection of notes/rows are
highlighted. Use the Enter key to enter the old Area Menu for the options that
do not depend on selecting NoteData. [Wolfman2000]
* [ScreenEdit] Allow converting selections to Delays, Warps, or Fakes as well
as Stops. Remember, use the Alter Menu for this. [Wolfman2000]
2011/06/09
----------
* [ScreenSyncOverlay] Ensure that F11 / F12 work with all charts due to Split
Timing. [Wolfman2000]
2011/06/08
----------
* Any notes in a fake segment or warp segment are completely ignored for
scoring purposes. Now you can get 100% on your warping goodness!
[Wolfman2000]
2011/06/06
----------
* [PlayerOptions] Removed the ScoreDisplay mod choices. Use lua to make your
own scoring formulas that work in reverse instead. [Wolfman2000]
* [ScreenGameplay] Fix an assist tick bug if there was no Player 1. Note that
this changes the behavior slightly: it is the first enabled player, or
master player, that gets the ticks now. A better solution will be looked at
in the future. [Wolfman2000]
* [NoteDataUtil] Fix a radar issue involving hands. Unfortunately, this means
yet another cache reload for accuracy purposes. [Wolfman2000]
2011/06/04
----------
* Changed default MusicWheelSwitchSpeed to 15 (was 10). [AJ]
* [AnnouncerManager] Fixed a bug where no announcers would be loaded. [AJ]
* Restored the UserPrefAutoSetStyle behavior. [Wolfman2000]
* [NotesLoaderSMA] Better way of identifying beats and seconds. [Wolfman2000]
================================================================================
StepMania 5.0 Preview 1a | 20110603
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2011/06/03
----------
* [LifeMeterBattery] Added LivesLeft param to LifeChanged message. [AJ]
* [Windows] Set up directories for pictures and app data in their proper
location. [Henke]
* [NotesLoaderSM] Fix an Offset load bug. [Wolfman2000]
2011/06/02
----------
* [BPMDisplay] Added SetFromSteps Lua binding. [AJ]
* [ScreenDebugOverlay] Switch the R and T keys to be Volume Down and Up
respectively. I have to admit, it makes more sense to have volume up be
on the right instead of the left. [Wolfman2000]
* [SongManager] Make autogen courses have "Autogen" as the Scripter. [AJ]
2011/06/01
----------
* [TimingData] Added the HasScrollChanges lua binding. [Wolfman2000]
* [ScreenEdit] Fix Song Timing behaviors. [Wolfman2000]
2011/05/31
----------
* [Player] Added the BattleRaveMirror metric. This determines if Battle and
Rave mode will have the two players with mirrored charts or not. By default,
this is set to true, preserving the ITG style behavior. [Wolfman2000]
* [TimingData] Added the HasScrollChanges lua binding. [Wolfman2000]
================================================================================
StepMania 5.0 Preview 1 | 20110529
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2011/05/27
----------
* [ScreenEdit] Added the LoopOnChartEnd metric. Once you get to the end of
the chart while playing it in the editor, this controls whether it loops and
plays again, or simply stops. By default, this is true, replicating current
behavior. Set to false to replicate older StepMania behavior. [Wolfman2000]
2011/05/26
----------
* [ScoreKeeperNormal] Added the MissComboIsPerRow metric. Similar to the
ComboIsPerRow metric, this determines how much miss combo is earned on missing
a row of notes. By default, this is true. Set to false to replicate Pump Pro
behavior. [Wolfman2000]
2011/05/25
----------
* [NotesLoaderSSC/NotesWriterSSC] Added the ScrollSegments. Think BPM change,
but not. [theDtTvB]
2011/05/23
----------
* [Steps] Added the UsesSplitTiming Lua binding. [Wolfman2000]
2011/05/20
----------
* [CryptManager] Added SHA1File Lua binding. [AJ]
2011/05/19
----------
* [BPMDisplay] Add CourseCycleSpeed metric. [AJ]
2011/05/17
----------
* [NotesWriterSM] Write out OpenITG compatible SM files from here on out.
This includes turning Warps into Negative Stops. For those that wanted
negative BPMs specifically, my apologies, but stops are easier on math.
[Wolfman2000]
2011/05/16
----------
* [ProfileManager] Added ProfileWasLoadedFromMemoryCard(PlayerNumber)
Lua binding. [AJ]
* Added #FAKES to the SSC format. Similar to the fake arrows, these blocks
prevent all judgments within the range. [Wolfman2000]
* Changed the syntax of #WARPS slightly. Now the second value is the relative
distance that is skipped, not the absolute value when you start hitting
arrows again. [Wolfman2000]
2011/05/15
----------
* [ScreenGameplay] Removed hardcoded commands for Debug (give up text) and
replace them with DebugStartOnCommand, DebugBackOnCommand, and
DebugTweenOffCommand. [AJ]
* Added #SPEEDS to the SSC format. This multiplies your scrolling speed during
gameplay, not replaces it (see mod attacks for replacing). [Wolfman2000]
2011/05/14
----------
* [ModIcon] Added StopWords metric. [AJ]
* [ScreenSelectMaster] Add "ScreenEmpty" param to MenuStartP# when the GameCommand
doesn't set a screen. [AJ]
* [StepsDisplay] Added MeterFormatString metric. [AJ]
* [MusicWheel] Added ShowSectionsInBPMSort and ShowSectionsInLengthSort metrics. [AJ]
* [ScreenEvaluation] Stop the Bonus bars from overflowing in course modes. [AJ]
* [Banner] Added ScrollMode and ScrollSortOrder metrics. [AJ]
2011/05/13
----------
* Added Split Timing to .SSC files. All older .SSC files and other file
formats are converted to split timing on cache load. We are no longer bound
by Song Timing for everything. [theDtTvB, Wolfman2000, TeruFSX]
2011/05/11
----------
* [GameSoundManager] Added PlayAnnouncer Lua binding. [AJ]
* [AnnouncerManager] Add support for "gameplay combo #" for announcer. [AJ]
2011/05/10
----------
* [Sprite] Added SetSecondsIntoAnimation Lua binding. [AJ]
* [BPMDisplay] Added SetFromCourse Lua binding. [AJ]
2011/05/03
----------
* [ScreenEdit] Allow changing the Beat 0 Offset, Music Sample Start, and
Music Sample Length via Edit Song Info menu. [Wolfman2000]
2011/05/02
----------
* [ScreenSelectMusic] Added NullScoreString metric. [AJ]
2011/04/17
--------
* Use lua for all primary score keeping. Course modes right now still use the
old fashioned system. [TeruFSX, Wolfman2000]
2011/04/09
--------
* [Player] Force hold judgments to take place before setting the score.
[theDtTvB]
2011/04/05
--------
* [NotesLoaderSSC, NotesWriterSSC] Add the #LABELS tag. This is meant for step
editors to label different parts of their stepcharts. Use Control + , or . to
jump to different labels made. [Wolfman2000]
